#and also the most powerful things ever

[yashley]

Say something true!

#critical role #ygifs #imogearne #imogen x fearne #when you’re taking a picture of the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen and the camera falls back and fucking decks you in the face #fearne going it’s ok you don’t need to confess I know~~ while imogen interrupts to say ‘’you’re a loser’’ they drive me NUTSkljsgdlkjs #also my brain is a little beehive cos these two Started with Fearne being the enabler to darker things while imogen was cautious #to fearne Seeing imogen about to be lost to ruidus and hardveering into panic that the power would never be worth losing her #to imogen hearing fearne hesitate and deny the shard and then telling fearne she should do it anyway #the way these two handle the other's Sways in darkness in such a Knowing way - ‘’Are you sure it wasn’t intentional?’’ #there’s like this ping and before it was encouraging and now fearne is scared and imogen is enabling the risk #and it’s like either imogen is silently ensuring laudna’s safety by fearne taking the shard despite any risk #or imogen honestly believes that fearne is stronger even than the power she would embrace. There is no risk. Fearne will conquer this. #so it’s like is it ulterior motives or is it faith or is it hypocrisy or is it all three at once it's so good #imogen spending her entire life running from her power so isn’t it so much easier to tell fearne she can just do it while imogen couldn’t #or is it just her genuinely encouraging fearne from Knowing the aftermath of pursuing the power #but it's like imogen ...... why would fearne choose you over the possibility for power when she's never done that before #and is this insistence/encouragement going to actually reassure fearne or is it going to be another crack #and when they do the ritual fearne asks imogen to be the one to take her out and imogen tries to comfort her by agreeing #and fearne looks on sadly and nods #remembering when she was asked to be the one to take imogen out and all fearne knew was that she couldn’t #anyway imogen's face when fearne said you're in love with me imogen said NOT NOWDSHKJF

I've started playing Honkai Star Rail and I love how dramatically silly it lets me be. So far I have stolen mail, searched garbage cans, entered a closet to become one with the darkness, waxed on about how life is just a road to death to a terrified guy (somehow that seemed to make him less terrified), bowed in respect to a dumpster, investigated an inconspicuous lamp so many times it got mad at me, investigated a trash can so many times it insulted me, and felt bad for two different trash cans and several sandbags (I believe my Trailblazer is going insane from putting up with me). All this not counting with the countless dialogue options with NPCs around the world that allowed me to be incredibly dramatic (think almost Fischl style) for no reason (you can bet I took them). However, I cannot jump or climb, and fights are turn-based... we respect our opponents in Star Rail (and die. A lot).

What I conclude from this is that while the Traveler has a moral code (and some standards) when dealing with interpersonal interactions but isn't bound by physical restrictions or conventions (stairs? The Traveler does not understand that concept. Fair fights? Please, they don't have time for that), the Trailblazer is the exact opposite. The physical rules may hold them but their only ties to social rules or convention so far have been March and Dan Heng saying "hey, maybe don't fight the guards" and "hey, you can't just accept random jobs".

It also might be because the Traveler is a thousand year old entity that has been through A Lot (has learnt the power of friendship, but is too tired to take the long route) and is on a serious mission while the Trailblazer was quite literally Born Yesterday with the sole purpose of housing a massive problem inside their body (walks and fights like a Normal Person bc they're mimicking everyone else, but is absolutely unhinged) and is just having fun with tjeir newfound existence.

Either way I love both of them and they're basically cryptids but in different ways.

#the Traveler gives off ''i'm too old for this'' enegry but also ''If I don't fix it who will'' #while the Trailblazer is the most chaotic neutral mf I've ever seen and I love them so much #hoyoverse mcs my beloved #When I started genshin I expected a soft game with silly moments and was instead met with pain #Also I love how powerful the traveler has become (I like to believe they're just recovering the power they used to have) #The Traveler holds the braincell between these two btw #I want to understand Star Rail lore better so I can write smth abt the two of them meeting in like a dream sequence kind of thing #when I started genshin I expected haha funny colorful game but was met with pain and post-apocaliptic worlds and cataclysms #when I started star rail I expected pain and apocalyptic worlds and cataclysms and was met with THE ABILITY TO BE SILLY #I CAN HIDE IN CLOSETS #fun fact: i started playing both games for the Hot Dragon Men #also: in mondstadt there's a goth hotel (the hotel is named goth but doesn't seem to have ties to goth culture) #and in star rail there is a goethe hotel that is pronouced rather similarly. both are family establishments and both are ran by an old man

something i think is so sad about cole and lillys relationship is that even when lilly was healthy, she wasnt super present in coles childhood, she kept taking on missions and going out on adventures and lou took time off from the royal blacksmiths to care for cole and be his primary caretaker, despite thaat, cole still loved his mother and looked up to her as a hero. which makes it even sadder that when she passed away and lou ran back to the royal blacksmiths, cole essentially had no one to fall back on like he did before with his dad

okay wait laughingstock concept Incoming: so im imagining some of the neighbors (maybe Julie & Frank) noticing that Barnaby & Howdy are a lil fruity, yk yk. and Julie's like damn, i guess we have to play matchmaker here.

so naturally they wind up getting the whole neighborhood involved. everybody's a wingman here. Poppy's dropping hints when Howdy drops off groceries, Wally is constantly asking Barnaby to go get him things from the bodega, etc etc. Howdy and Barnaby are facing this sudden change in town-wide behavior with slight concern and bemusement

eventually - lets say Julie, Sally, and Wally - get Barnaby into the bodega and then abruptly leave like "don't have too much fun without us you two *wink wink nudge nudge*". once they're gone (read: very obviously hiding outside & watching through the window) Barnaby & Howdy turn to each other like:

Barnaby: you think we should tell them we're already married?

Howdy: let them have their fun - they'll figure it out eventually

#dont have the mental fortitude to Draw This but i still wanted to share the thought #'but how would no one notice that theyre literally married' #easy: theyre very relaxed and secure in their relationship. also howdy has a strict 'no pda at work' rule #also because its funny. we can stretch rationality for the Bit cmon now #through the power of the bit Anything is possible #and we all know the neighbors are Peak Sillies so. yk #it strikes me that once they get Bored of the constant 'matchmaking' #barnaby and howdy stage this whole thing where they 'confess' to each other So dramatically and So publicly #they make it an Event #sally is swooning from the drama and spectacle of it all. wally is trying to paint the moment as fast as possible #julie is so excited she's close to passing out. eddie is crying. so is poppy. frank is taking the credit. home is just happy to be there #as soon as barnaby and howdy retreat out of sight they burst out laughing for a solid ten minutes #GAH THE BRAINROT THE BRAINROT #laughingstock #wailing and sobbing they are so so good together and FOR WHAT FUCKING REASON #i cant even put it into words they just Fit! like puzzle pieces! #theres something so natural about em. i look at them and its like. they Would be perfect for each other huh #i already know theyd have such a healthy wholesome relationship They Just Work. Theyre The Dream Couple #howdy says the most confusing sentence ever said. barnaby nods along with genuine love in his eyes. etc. you get it #now watch! canon is gonna absolutely set this on fire! #which would be Fun. painful. but Fun. seriously tho im curious as to how/if barnaby and howdy will interact/develop.... #i mean personally i love it when shit gets messy so i hope it Hurts So Bad or at least Goes Downhill #i hope its a rollercoaster on all accounts

i just call it “fox effect”

#the fic was just the most mouth watering smutty and angsty thing i ever read #literally had a whole enemies to lovers with him #and i am still under a train for him #like no man can use me if he’d ask me to wash his speeder with my tongue i would agree without complain #idk why he has such a power on me but its ok #i lost interest in real man for him #i guess also my aroace ass has a part in this #commander fox #and he has no idea of how much power he have over the fandom #guess ima just write my own oc x fox angst #cc 1010 #we stand commander fox here #we ship clones with characters just because we cant have em #clone wars #star wars the clone wars #star wars #incorrect star wars

inscryptober week 2: TIME WARP!

another piece where i got wayyy too into lighting haha; since inscryption’s apparent heyday seems to have been the late 80′s/early 90′s, i immediately took this week as an excuse to put the scrybes in eye-searing 80′s drip lmao

i started with the idea of a v dated in-universe targeted ad campaign, and eventually landed on a synthwave-y neon arcade aesthetic; ended up really getting into it! my personal favorite part of conceiving this piece was figuring out what corny (and dated) modern equivalents i would replace all their inscryption tools with lol

#inscryption #inscryptober #leshy inscryption #p03 inscryption #magnificus inscryption #grimora inscryption #this is either the coolest or most ridiculous thing i've ever drawn w these guys lol #it was fun figuring out who was wearing what #also p03 with the power glove might be my crowning achievement of all time

it's scary how addictive ethubs is

i could go without thinking about them for two months but then spend three days muling over a particular interaction of theirs

#I noticed they talked about the old times a lot. I don't know why but this is doing things to my brain???? #also this is terrible but that au of ethubs in hogwarts has been eating at my brain and it's so stupid #it's a crossover no one wants but i'm just obsessed with it #like. Slytherin!Etho with robe and green tie and stuff. I imagine he casts spell with one hand in his pocket aidfhwetohadgoihzfgek #and Bdubs being the most Gryffindor to ever Gryffindor but also terrifyingly smart and powerful #I don't know but just. wizard and witch hermits. wizard ethubs. #ethubs #hermit shipping #I'm talking about their characters by the way

not to push my loser crowley agenda but once they've made up and aziraphale goes to kiss him he should be absolutely floored. gobsmacked. dumbstruck

they'll be standing around the bookshop or something maybe half drunk and aziraphale will start walking towards him and crowley will just get flustered immediately. starts stammering walking backwards stumbles almost trips looks frantically everywhere but aziraphale and then once he has his back against a bookshelf and can't move anymore he's just like Ummmmmmmm 😳 and obviously aziraphale is highly amused at this whole thing and says something along the lines of "it's just me" and crowley's like hng. mmmmnnhhhhh. hhhhhh

#fearandhatred #hope y'all know that the vision of this i have in my head is of a cartoon crowley #so he's a lil dumb and stupid just how i like them #crowley in the show: is kinda cool maybe. has powers and is hot #crowley in my head: is the most pathetic loser man thing you have ever laid eyes kn #but also cool #good omens #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #crowley #aziraphale

#I feel so ill about those episodes that I can't even post about them #text #I finished the show by the way. those are the fastest 177 episodes I have ever watched. during exam season of all things sadkjfhsdfhskg. #my final verdict is that the show fucks severely until season 7 1/2 after which it kind of sucks. it also loses its track somewhat post #s6 1/2 and starts repeating rehashing and contradicting its messages but otherwise it isn't Bad or Mediocre the way those last episodes are #anyway. media embracing absurdism and committing to the bit are catnip to me and house md/tlt/disco elysium really hit that sweet spot <3 #do you know what they also have in common? gay people / discussions of love sex and power that make you insane / maladjusted protagonists - #- failing to succeed under exploitative systems / and most importantly gothic hauntings and entrapment. #house md

DSOD is such a funny movie. Kaiba comes on screen in his giant fucking space station molded into his company logo and I just laughed. He’s so dramatic. He misses his rival and is so obsessed with getting some closure for once in his goddamn life that he spent well over a billion dollars to excavate a cursed puzzle and build a space elevator to the afterlife but the minute anyone says anything about ‘hey maybe that’s a little unhealthy’ he’s snapping and snarling and telling them to fuck off. Except the cube guy. He’s has a duel disk and is also full of unprocessed grief so he can stay. Yugi Moto looks them dead in the eye and says “first of all, I’m only here because you both blackmailed me. Secondly, fuck you both for that, by the way. Thirdly, I’m gonna kick your ass”. Card games ensue, meanwhile Yugi tries his absolute best to show Kaiba the pharaoh is gone and maybe he needs to spend some time reflecting on his emotions and yes the invitation is still open to talk about Him BUT THEN THE NARRATIVE PROVED KAIBA RIGHT?!! AND THE PHARAOH COMES BACK AND YUGI HAS TO LOOK KAIBA IN THE EYE AND TELL HIM THAT HES SORRY FOR DOUBTING HIM?? WHAT. What Kaiba takes from all this is that a) his horrid coping mechanisms work after all, b) if he just fucks around enough and spends all his money he really can be king of the world and c) the best option is definitely to finish that space elevator and fucking. Go to the afterlife I guess. To duel his “hated rival” or whatever. Fuck off

#dsod #seto kaiba #dark side of dimensions #yugioh #yugioh duel monsters #ygo dm #ygo #I just rewatched this movie and it really is the story of kaiba failing to deal with loss #making it everyone’s problem #and eventually he made it so much of a problem that even atem had to come back and be like ‘for fucks sake kaiba if you’re going to be #‘such a bitch about it FINE.’ #and like the plana’s power being taken away once the pharaoh is resurrected means that kaiba putting the Millenium puzzle back together #to see atem again inadvertently saved the day #like holy shit the entire narrative really was shaped around letting him be insane while yugi is the most normal person ever in comparison #hmm also diva and kaiba’s grief being juxtaposed… hmmm #dsod is such a movie #and I just remembered he literally COUKD HAVE DIED AND LEFT MOKUBA IN CHARGE?? HELLO #thank god for the kaiba/yugi in space illustration takahashi did bc leaving things off with the end of dsod is just. #not great. except for prideshippers I guess 😭

Since we're talking about Grandfather Spider can we Girls please just take one single moment of the day to remember and think about his, "I am beyond angry with you, but I could never hate you." quote to Grandmother Raven please. Please. Please can we do that? I will become sick as fuck if someone doesn't acknowledge this with me

#that was one of the most powerful fucking things ive ever personally read #can we please applaud the emotional maturity and intelligence on spider's part here please. to be able to tell and admit the difference- #-between feelings of anger and resentment and flat out hate #there's like not even really a word spider could find that could sum up all his negative feelings other than 'anger'. its not just anger- #-its so much more than that. but its not hate. he doesn't hate her and never has hated her #also the acknowledgement that things (at that point in time) between them are still Not Okay #like. they're not fighting any longer. they recognized their harmful actions but those feelings still havent gone away theyre still hurt #i think the ending to their arc was very decent because it still gave them room to grow in peace #they're not okay RIGHT NOW but with enough work maybe they will be. it will take years and years and years but maybe it will be okay. #“hey look im not all that comfortable with you yet but i recognize your regret and willingness to work on us so i can do the same for you”- #-hey what if i died right now. what if i died from that right fucking now. #wizard101 #wiz101 #w101 #text posts #grandfather spider

So, my family is rewatching Rings of Power, and since I’m the one in the family that read The Silmarillion (like a masochist), I’m the one who keeps getting asked all the questions.

#‘did this happen?’ well broadly speaking yes but Tolkien never fleshed this part of middle-earth’s history out in much detail #but I know exactly where they got the idea for whatever it is most of the time #‘is Galadriel’s husband really dead’ of course not #‘did Sauron ever go by the name Halbrand?’ well not really but also how much time do you have because this is going to take some explaining #‘is that Gandalf?’ almost definitely but they’re doing the blue wizard thing with him by taking him to Rhun #also I think they’re making him the basis for the hobbit’s ’man in the moon’ song so I’m honestly okay with it #‘is the Queen lady’s nightmare significant’ Yes three times over but how am I supposed to say anything about it #without giving away what’s probably a season finale #‘what’s with the mithril?’ Hell if I know I’m as confused as you are about that #actually the Galadriel’s husband one was funny #because of course Celeborn shows up in the movies #but my mom wasn’t sure that was actually her husband #or some random blorbo #or a second husband #which then opened up the whole conversation #to how the elves are painfully monogamous even when their spouse dies #because they way they die is weird and also #they all still have generational and firsthand trauma from the fallout of that one elf guy who did get remarried #rings of power spoilers

No because now I saw this again and immediately thought about buff Will + El with the blonde wig this is kinda funny I'm imagining him going to a place where they sell these posters and going Oh... That one is cool... Idk why. stop asking, Lucas, I just like the movie 🙄🙄🙄

#byler #the most bisexual poster ever created #mike wheeler #bi mike wheeler #el hopper byers #will byers #stranger things #also now that I think about it this could be used by milkvans too if they want #they could say Mike has it because he wants to see himself as the paladin with the sword and a blonde girl like El with the wig is with him #this is the power of interpretation #we just don't know
